Periodic Table of Printmaking : AzureGrackle started a project with 96 printmakers to create an artistic representation of the periodic table of the elements.

Thanks for sharing this - gorgeous art and some clever ideas. I keep seeing new favorites - Niobium is awesome. Very, very cool.

Yes, thank you, grapefruitmoon. The Periodic Table — i.e. the furniture of all life — has always fascinated me, and this is a beautiful, collage version of it. Very nice to explore. Not to mention I learned a few things. Ununquadium? Ununbium?

I like seeing how different artists incorporated different aspects of the element into their prints. The horrible stench of Bromine. The dark myth behind Tantalum's name. The metal in your bananas. The rapid decay of Nobelium. There are so many good ones, but I think my favorite is, uuh?
